About
Marshall Artz
Dynamic Acoustic Americana
Two Guitars. One Distinctive Sound.
Marshall Artz brings together the musical talents of Brad Marshall and Kevin Artz in an original blend of Americana, folk, blues, and roots rock.
Combining intricate acoustic guitar arrangements, driving rhythms, and expressive vocals, the duo creates a remarkably full sound that goes far beyond what you'd expect from just two guitars.
With six albums of original music and more than 1,700 live performances, Marshall Artz delivers a dynamic musical experience shaped by years of collaboration, creativity, and an unmistakable musical chemistry.
“It is clear to see and hear why this dynamic duo is a driving force in the modern world of acoustic music.” - Len Jaffe

Under October Skies
Leaves are falling and so are the temperatures here on the East Coast. Splashes of color on trees and bushes are a clarion call for Autumn. The skies are filled with stars longer since night begins earlier each night. A wash of color was splashed above us as the aurora borealis reached the southern United States and amazed us all. Beauty arrives unexpectedly as a reminder of the miracle we share on planet Earth. Celebrate Rocktober with your Marshall Artz playlist while you're doing what you do. It's sure to put a smile on your face.
